He everyone! I am back again this week to share another card using the stamp set Coffee Sayings 1 from THE STAMP DOCTOR. This week I will be showing you how to create a fun background using one of the smaller stamps in the set.

So to begin, I found several supplies that had sort of a coffee color I didn't end up using all the supplies, but it was a good start.

I cut down a small piece of white paper and used an acrylic block to stamp the coffee label all over the cardstock. I then added some washi tape to create interest.

Using the coordinating die cut, I cut out a coffee cup with some designer paper and again on white cardstock. I fussy cut the top for the lid and adhered it to my cup.

I then matted it onto some kraft cardstock so that it would not get lost in the background.

This set is currently on sale, so be sure to check it out over at the shop. Coupon Code Taylormadecards4u gets you 10% off.

Hello everyone! This month was my first month receiving the subscription kit from Tonic Studios. I typically do not join monthly subscriptions mainly because I don't want to pay for something I don't want.

But I have to say, I was very happy with the kit this month. It was called Sweet Sentiments and the name fit the theme for sure.

I have an unboxing video for you below along with 6 cards that I created using my supplies in the kit.

This month's set had some great sentiments dies and some sentiments stamps that coordinate beautifully with the dies.

The dies work to create stand alone sentiments which you can add onto your card or you can cut them directly into your top panel and add additional layering like I did with the Just Because card.

I also shared a technique using the new glue pen and some deco foil to create the grungy background on my dream big card. I just love this technique and it creates a great background.

Hi everyone! I am always so thrilled when I get to share projects from some of the designers I have met through my crafting. I am sharing some projects today from my crafty friend Char who I met on one of the many design teams I have been on.

Char created some of these fun projects using my most recent kit, Vintage Garden which was released on march 5th. Vintage Garden This set is available both in a digital download and as well as an embellishment kit that you can get in the mail. This kit comes with 8 pieces of ephemera and two bees. These kits are great for so many projects.

Char created two beautiful cards, with similar vibes, but different designs. I love the layering effects on the card below.

She also created this Darling tag using one of the ephemera pieces and those cute little bees.
